What is a short summary of the story, A Hundred Apocalypses, from the collection, One Hundred Apocalypses and Other Apocalypses?

A Hundred Apocalypses is broken down into four chapters, each chapter considering a different aspect of the apocalypse. "A Quarter of a Hundred Apocalypses" is a series of vignettes considering how the apocalypse can give individuals (and the world) an opportunity to make a new future. "Up to Half the Apocalypses" considers how an apocalypse necessarily separates the individual from his / her past, which can be both liberating and tragic. "Through to Three Quarters of a Hundred Apocalypses" considers how the individual deals with the apocalypse and its aftermath, while "These Final Apocalypses" consider how individuals find meaning for themselves after the apocalypse has occurred. Each of these chapters is broken down into a series of vignettes, some as long as three pages, others as short as one sentence. Each vignette has a different narrator, different setting, and different theme, although all consider the apocalypse in some way.
